Behold: the 1989 Aston Martin V8 Volante Zagato Convertible – one of only 37 made between 1986 and 1990, assembled by hand with a hand-stitched leather interior.
A rare Aston indeed (with just 549km on the clock), this vehicle spent most of its life on display before receiving a ground-up restoration with new brakes, suspension, a 315bhp engine upgrade, left hand drive conversion and replacement of every item degraded in the last 32 years.
You covet its inexplicable styling and Bentley Magnolia colour scheme.
You’re humming the chorus of Kylie’s ‘Hand On Your Heart’.
But you can’t have this car, because it sold this week for €170,000.

The soundtrack was way better than the video, maybe.
Speaking only for myself and from my perspective.
Wondering now what would be musical representation of that car….
Falco – Rock Me Amadeus
or
Nick Berry – Every Loser Wins
That car is Shattered Dreams by Johnny Hates Jazz

It’s really more of a fawn colour
Part of the Dulux Weathershield range, great for those who don’t have a garage.
